A Neovim plugin providing automated refactoring operations (extract/inline variable and function) and print-debugging helpers, powered by tree-sitter and LSP. It is based on the refactoring patterns from Martin Fowler's Refactoring book.

Use cases

  • extract a selected expression into a variable in neovim
  • inline a variable into all its references
  • extract a block of code into a function
  • insert debug print statements with location context
  • clean up debug print statements from code
  • refactor code inside neovim without leaving the editor

When to choose

  • you use Neovim 0.12+ and want IDE-style automated refactorings
  • you want tree-sitter and LSP powered extract/inline operations for supported languages
  • you frequently add and remove print-debugging statements

When to avoid

  • you use an editor other than Neovim
  • your language lacks a tree-sitter parser or the required queries
  • you need refactoring features beyond extract/inline, such as rename or move method
